I had seen some houses with the lanai only and it definitely is too hot and humid to enjoy for some months.

The heating and a/c makes it great.

As I said, it would be expensive to do - but probably worth every cent.
We also have glass - and were able to draw the AC from the existing unit. Overall, that cost less than the acrylic...
